It’s always amuses me that Canada Day and Free Agency Day occur simultaneously. While it may make sense to some, Canada being a hockey mad country, I think the pain associated with losing a player in the free agent market would make many Canadians wish the two were separated (Ryan Smyth anyone?). …

Why is Tapeleg Smiling?
http://jerseysandhockeylove.com/blog/2008/06/26/why-is-tapeleg-smiling/And why is he speaking in the third person. Because Jose Theodore is out the door. From the Denver Post (which is not the AP, so I can quote the story): Talks between the Avalanche and Jose Theodore have broken down, and it now appears the veteran goalie will test the NHL open market beginning Tuesday. …

http://jibblescribbits.blogspot.comJose seems to want to be back (even though agents always say that), and it would be the best fit for him. Hackett is an excellent coach and Theo still needs more time under his tutelage. Tapeleg would like to see him test the free agency waters, but in my opinion any other option is just as risky as Theo. I think the avs should sign him. 2 years $4 - $4.5M/year sounds about right for a goalie of Theo's credentials, based on the current market (though I could see his price as high as

Theo probably gone
http://jibblescribbits.blogspot.com/2008/06/theo-probably-go...even if they wanted to try and sign one of those guys to an offer sheet. The Avs could also deal for a guy like Jaroslav Halat in Montreal, or Gerber in Ottawa. They could roll the dice with Hasek too. (BWWAHAHAHAHAHAHA) ...

Colorado Avalanche Updates, News and Game Reviews at Avs Talk
http://coloradoavalancheblog.comMaybe one of them was the same guy who tried voting Sidney Crosby onto the All-Star team...as a right-winger. Thanks to Mirtle for keeping us abreast of how the voting went for each of the awards last night. And thanks to Tapeleg for giving some excellent suggestions on making the awards ceremony better than a preschool awards show.

Quick coach search thoughts
http://jibblescribbits.blogspot.com/2008/05/quick-coach-sear...Many of you may wonder why I haven't put my thoughts on a coach down yet, but frankly That's been covered to death lately. Not just in Denver Post articles, but also Dater's blog. All the other outstanding Avs blogs have the situation covered as well. It's not that all this coverage hasn't been interesting, it really has, but frankly I anything I add at this point would be superfluous. Saying that here's my quick take on who I want: Top 3 McLellan

Ribeiro's slash on Osgood not suspension-worthy / UPDATE: No suspensions, just fines all around
http://hockey-madness.blogspot.com/2008/05/ribeiros-slash-on...wonders if a suspension will come. I know that the NHL will see the whole incident, and probably let Ribeiro off easy. They should. If Ribeiro gets any punishment, Osgood should as well. (Here's a good clip of the whole incident from ESPN. Thanks Tapeleg for the link.) 4. The strange thing that angers me is that I'm defending Mike the Spineless Star Weasel Ribeiro. What has it come to? There are not enough teams in the top 4 that I like! 5. Hockey is turning into soccer. Bunch of diving assholes out
